It is a much more dangerous fight than the Yoshida fight for Josh, because Rizzo does have KO power. If Josh comes into the fight in shape and with a good training camp I think he takes it.

I agree. I think Josh is in that unique category where he has to really step up the competition. In a way, he's placed himself in an elite category so I think that he should be fighting elite competition.
Rizzo has been on the comeback trail but I'd like to have seen him beat a few more biggies before this one...
